Adam
Adam is an AI-powered CAD agent designed to simplify and accelerate workflows within existing CAD platforms. It replaces complex, repetitive actions with natural language prompts, allowing users to edit parts, create features, and modify designs more efficiently. Adam uses selection context to understand the user’s intent and apply high-level commands directly to the appropriate geometry. It helps optimize feature trees by identifying duplicate or inefficient features and merging them for cleaner, more robust designs. Parametrization tools allow users to convert ad-hoc models into structured designs with variables that update consistently across the model. Adam integrates directly into familiar CAD environments, reducing the learning curve for adoption. Overall, Adam modernizes CAD by making it faster, more intuitive, and AI-native.
